Dull? You want DULL??? This is excerpted from an RFC of February, 2006 dealing with IPv6 deployment:

The DNS Recursive Name Server option can be carried in any DHCPv6
Reply message, in response to either a Request or an Information
request message. Thus, the DNS Recursive Name Server option can be
used either when DHCPv6 is used for address assignment, or when
DHCPv6 is used only for other configuration information as stateless
DHCPv6.

   Stateless DHCPv6 can be deployed either by using DHCPv6 servers
running on general-purpose computers, or on router hardware. Several
router vendors currently implement stateless DHCPv6 servers.    Deploying stateless DHCPv6 in routers has the advantage that no
special hardware is required, and it should work well for networks
where DHCPv6 is needed for very straightforward configuration of
network devices.

   However, routers can also act as DHCPv6 relay agents. In this case, the DHCPv6 server need not be on the router; it can be on a general purpose computer. This has the potential to give the operator of the DHCPv6 server more flexibility in how the DHCPv6 server responds to individual clients that can easily be given different configuration information based on their identity, or for any other reason. Nothing precludes adding this flexibility to a router, but generally, in current practice, DHCP servers running on general-purpose hosts tend to have more configuration options than those that are embedded in routers.

Perhaps I'll next do stuff on subnet masking...BWAHAHAHAHA!!!
